The library is a great resource for watching movies that I not-so secretly wanted to watch but didn't want to shell out actual money for ( Read more... )

Been a while since I've wanted to write about what I'm reading. I really slacked in my reading last year so I'm making sure this year will be better in terms of catching up on titles that I've been wanting to read as well as keeping up with what books people are into lately ( Read more... )

Even though he spent a couple of days in the vet, I'm still counting the days since he arrived here part of his stay ( Read more... )

So, gained a ton of weight because of all the takeout I was eating most of nursing school, 'cause let's be honest, I wasn't up to cooking when I had ten chapters of Med-Surg to read. Now that I have less than two weeks left of this, I'm getting back into cooking more at home and making meals that are made up of more vegetables, less meat, and less ( Read more... )

Two more weeks left till nursing school. It feels like a dream. I still remember my elation when I got the e-mail saying that I was admitted to Downstate, and now, it's practically over. The boards, and job hunting, to follow ( Read more... )
